FAQ
Q: I cannot move/drag my skills on my bars?
A: Hold Shift to move skills safely. You can also unlock your bars in the Bartender4 options, but using Shift is safer and recommended.
Q: How do i access the Configuration?
A: You can open the configuration with the Slash Commands (/bt or /bartender) or through the Bartender4 LDB plugin.
Q: Where are my keybindings? And how do i bind new keys?
A: Bartender4 buttons should automatically inherit keybindings from the Blizzard bars. For new keybindings, you can use KeyBound to re-bind your keys. You can access KeyBound by its slash command (/kb) or through the button in the BT4 config. Hover a button, press key → voila!
Q: Can I skin the buttons beyond the built-in options?
A: Bartender4 allows skinning through Masque! After installing both Bartender4 and Masque, you can customize the BT4 appearance in the Masque options.
Q: How do i disable the snapping of the bars?
A: Currently, you can temporarily override the snapping by holding down the Shift Key while moving your bars, or uncheck the option in the popup when your bars are unlocked.

Posted Aug 9, 2025Hi,
There is a problem with the Extra Action Bar.
Once it is placed, the action button is not in the desired location.

Posted Aug 6, 2025Wondering if anyone has tried the 1 button assist. For whatever reason, when 11.2 came out, it stopped working. It should the icon for it, but pressing the key bind or clicking on the bar itself for bartender doesn't work. Wondering if maybe I'm doing something wrong, or if something broke it in 11.2.

Posted Aug 6, 2025Hello, for several days now, the pet bar has been missing. I've disabled and re-enabled it, but it doesn't change anything ; I no longer have my pets' attacks (warlock).
I also can't put my pets' attacks in another bar.

Posted Jul 1, 2025I've lost all my profiles... that was a lot of work to set up and such a useful tool for me. Will we have a fix for this? I hate to start over.
